Suso Saiz

In 1980 he founded, together with Maria Villa and Pedro Estevan, the historical "Orquesta de las Nubes". Four years later he recorded his first album. Since then, Suso Saiz has became one of the most prolific and versatile Spanish artists: he has regularly collaborated with other musicians such as Javier Paixariño, Luis Eduardo Aute, Jorge Pardo, Esclarecidos/Lliso, Jorge Reyes or Steve Roach. Apart from working on his own creations, he has also collaborated in the soundtracks of films such as "La Ardilla Roja" (directed by Julio Medem), "El Detective y la Muerte" (by Gonzalo Suárez), "África" (by Alfonso Ungría), "Novios" (by Joaquin Oristrell), "El Milagro de P.Tinto" (by Javier Fesser) and the TV series "Al Filo de lo Imposible". He has also recently been nominated for a Goya Award for Best Song for his work in the original soundtrack of the film "El Arte de Morir" directed by Álvaro Fernández Armero.

This album was awarded, in 1994, as Best Instrumental Album by the N.A.R.Y.D.

In this field he has worked for other artists such as Luis Eduardo Aute, Esclarecidos/Lliso, Madredeus, Los Planetas or Joan Valent. He has also entered in the world of dance music, under the name of MSP & Party, at the hands of Rita Marley. Saiz has performed in the main festivals of new musical tendencies: Caracas (Venezuela), Me
